"Silver Cornet Band played a concert on July 14, 1912. A Mr. J. W. Smith was the band director and for the next 10 years, Mr. Smith and my Dad alternated at times being the band director. The Band played Verdi, [unintelligible] and [Barnhaus?]. It was a brass band! By that time the band had been in existence for 40 years. It has been organized first in 1872". Credit Dr.John Lewis
